He knows me so well.

Must be one heck of a jigsaw puzzle that Clod is working on!

Yeah, one that says "from 4 to 6 years":p

Whatever it is, it's something easy to count. Like computer files, and not like weeds left to pull in the front yard, otherwise it wouldn't be updated with precision so easily.

I've got $10 that says she will be finished on November 2nd, if she spends less time here.

this mystery is killing bigV, it would seem.

oh, what is the 1-20-09 in your sig, big?

Ooh, I know that one. It's inauguration day. :)

Well, add one to my total.
I can't bear to be shown up.

I wonder if it's nappies left to change.
Perhaps she slacks off some days because she's in the Cellar and lets the boys run commando.

(Disclaimer - I am sure Clod is a marvellous mother and would never put internet entertainment before the needs of her family. Unless its the one day a year when tw is really funny)

It's funny you mention that--just yesterday we had yet another incident of Minifob shoving his hands down in his diaper and smearing poop all over his shirt, face, and hair. There were two upsides, though: none got on the carpet this time, and he came running to me very upset about the whole thing, so at least we know he was trying to get it off his hands rather than doing it for fun.

I think it is the number of dollars she is working off her phone sex bill from a few years ago.

Bingo.

lj: Not killing me, interesting me. I like puzzles. It's something that is measurable, and according to the other clues given in Clodfobble's initial explanation, something that can be known. Maybe with the information available here, maybe not. I'm just paying attention.

The most interesting parts of my professional life are like this in many respects. There is a set of circumstances, some history, and some goal. Figure it out. Why is the exchange server crashing? Why can't I see the contents of the Q: drive? Please grant D read only access to xyz directory.

Here's what I want. Here's what I've got. Close the gap. It's a stimulating mental exercise, that's all. It has not come close to the "it's killing me mystery" stage. Yet. Those exist for me, but they're uncommon. The most frequently asked and most frequently unanswered question is "Why (fill in unrepeatable computer behavior here)?" Why ask why? Because. I don't know. Do you care, now that it's up and running? These are all answers I've used to salve the itch of not knowing when I *can't* know.

She's been watching Battlestar Galactica on DVD, and that the number of humans left alive in the fleet on her latest episode viewed.

my guess, debit. I love a good guessing game.
